Annotation:

The reservoir pressure maintenance system (RPM) plays an important role in the development of oil and gas condensate fields in productive reservoirs in order to achieve high rates of oil production and increase the degree of its recovery. At the same time, the volume of injected water does not always reach the target reservoir and perform its functions. Often, the injected water migrates to neighboring reservoirs due to the formation of behind-the-casing flows, Auto-Fracturing cracks, natural cracks, faults, etc. All these cases indicate unproductive injection. In order to increase the efficiency of the reservoir pressure maintenance system as well as to improve the energy state of the fields, it is proposed to carry out radial reservoir opening on injection wells.
